    Summary

    "People understand new things through the prism of what they already know."

    An AU inspired by the book "The Ministry of Time" by Kaliane Bradley.

    In the near future, a bureaucrat and a surgeon become housemates. That is, surgeon from the Regency Era whom the government has delivered, along with four other historical citizens, to the modern day. This is how Mary Bennet ends up steering Dr. Thomas Hayward through the unending trials of the twenty first century, including electricity, Spotify, and living in a house with an unmarried lady.

    Summary

    …They're all bloody identical.

    Mat Cauthon thinks they are all the same person, just from different rebirths as the Wheel of Time turns.

    James Moriarty disagrees. They must be distant cousins, the new science of genetics has a funny way of manifesting itself.

    Orpheus wonders if the gods are toying with him, attempting to draw him from his mourning. Without Eurydice, what point is there to life?

    And Tom Hayward? He just wants to read his poetry in peace, and these strange men with his face are frightening his staff.

    Summary

    Summary

    Mr and Mrs Hayward are, quite undoubtedly, very much in love. Everything else, one supposes, ought to follow naturally… right?

    Still, however inexperienced, she and her husband endeavour to make the most of their first night together.

    Summary

    Princess Mary, the third of King Henry and Queen Jane's five daughters, had snuck into Leeds United matches with her nanny, Mrs Hill, since she was a tween. A team beanie, a scarf and some facepaint rendered her anonymous and free to dance like a lunatic, sing the team songs, and hurl abuse at the refs in peace.
    Since Leeds acquired a humble but dangerous striker, Tom Hayward, her fervour for the team had only grown. Then came the day the tabloid press spotted Princess Mary in her Hayward jersey and she went viral on TikTok and earned the ire of her mother.

    A Princess/ English football hero AU 👑⚽️💖

    Follow England Skipper, Tom, and his secret royal girlfriend, Princess Mary, to the USA for FIFA World Cup 2026 as kit man, John Sparrow, helps the lovers snatch moments together between England victories; tabloid rumours (is that John Thornton from North and South as a former England captain?); bromances (is that Loki Laufeyson playing for Iceland?); a burgeoning romance between Mary's stylist, Madeleine, and her head of security, Ed; a new friendship for Mary with film megastar, Ann Powell; and dressing room banter (with the squad entirely made up of Austen characters).

    Summary

    The year is 1995. Civilian use of the internet is in its infancy. Mobile phones are mostly still shaped like house bricks and only owned by very few. Friends is on TV. The girls are swooning over Chandler Bing and his neuroses or Hugh Grant and his floppy hair. Nonchalance is in. It’s harder than ever to be sensitive, grieving, love poetry, and have a head of unruly brown curls. And it’s harder still to find yourself wanting to worship at the cherry Docs of one Miss Mary Bennet.

    Summary

    When embarking on their anonymous email experiment, The Rules that TinternAbbeys and MrsMacaulayKnowsAll had set up were very clear:

    1. No personally identifying information of any kind
    2. No looking the other person up at all
    3. No texts/calls/meeting in person
    4. These messages are a way to reclaim a dying form of communication, so at least try to keep to some level of etiquette - it’s the correspondence that’s the point!

    Rule number four is easy to follow. The other three, less so…especially after Tom Hayward and Mary Bennet meet for (what they think is) the very first time.

    A modern AU loosely inspired by the film You’ve Got Mail.

    Summary

    “Bed,” she decided, lightly biting his earlobe. “Unless you plan to wreck me against the hallway.”

    “Bed first,” he said, voice husky. “Wrecking second,” he whispered into her ear as he rolled his hips again, the heat zipping straight to her core.

    They made it as far as the living room rug.

    Summary

    Mary Bennet could be described with three words: intelligent, agreeable, and careful. She was also a damn good pianist, having dedicated her entire life to the study of the craft. As the only pianist for the London Symphony Orchestra, she was accomplished. Happy.
    Right...?

Never in his life had he ran out of things to say, until too many years seemed to cause his well to run dry. That is until the most beautiful pianist steps on stage...
